| Obverse description | The obverse features a contemporary graphic effigy of Marianne, symbol of the French Republic, shown in left-facing profile and wearing the Phrygian cap, rendered in a modern stylistic idiom. To the right, a colorized tricolore cockade appears in outline above the initials 'RF', denoting République Française. The date '2015' is inscribed in the central field, while the left portion of the coin bears a stanza from the poem 'Liberté' by French poet Paul Éluard — 'Sur toutes les pages lues / Sur toutes les pages blanches / Pierre sang papier ou cendre / J'écris ton nom' — serving as an allusion to the Republican motto; the mint marks appear alongside this poetic extract. The outer ring carries the twelve stars of the European Union. |
